I remember the days when the only hate on this website was directed at Charlie after he dumped on Nvidia... good times.

The indians gave up but the arabs will never give up. Look at afghanistan these people are tough and will fight on and die - afterall their belief is there's life after death and to die for a good cause is like a ticket to paradise. So with thinking like these there's no shortage of new recruitments.

The same will continue till the end of time...or until the jews decides to start world war 3. And with the new party in israel netunyahu he is already saying he will have to take out iran if america fails diplomacy and he will continue to build settlements... I just hope he keeps to his promise, you see, i like to witness WW3 within my lifetime! Imagine if the jews were to try and conquer the whole middle east and then france, germany, amreica and then us in the UK, with fear the russians or others in europe will start the same s#!t as before with the crist killer bulls#!t and take out the jews with another holocaust... I have already researched on the holocaust denial and the top man in the church and the response from the isreali guy and the statements he made against virgin mary and jesus himself... I like it it's interesting to me. I hope for a all out world war, come on people make heroes out of themself at those times - if i'm called by the british army (mod) i must go and defend my country, nothing personal, it's all in the name of good and evil. I think these past wars are a joke and it's more like bullying the weak people or unarmed civilians cowards even... with a full-fledge armies, it truly is beautiful. Just look at the war movies, more tactics than headbutting!

Think about it people will be talking about you for thousands of years to come and your bravery, a hero who saved the day! Might even make you into a saint - who knows... But we're all going hell though, so we win here in this life but Jesus's kingdom is off limit for us sodomites. Bye Jon.

"Illegal occupation" can be claimed by both sides. The fact is that we both living on this little piece of land. If you think about 67 (BTW Gaza borders now exactly as it was before 67), think about 48-67. US is not "true" friend of Israel. They have same kind of friendship with Jordan, Egypt, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and others. Actually in the beginning, USSR supported Israel. You rest my case by describing what each side have. What I try to say, is that it will lead to nothing , but more blood spilled if we(you and me) don't change our approach. And it's simply accept the fact that both of us will live here and have to share. This way, your people will be able not only doing "dirty" work like constructions, but actually go to universities, get some education and be equal in all terms.

@Microcosm
At least we are able to talk without killing each other :)
Chips, i would like to see PowerPC based desktops/notebooks CPUs (Cell anyone). They are much more elegant than this ugly x86 :)

You're illegally occupying our land, what do you expect our kids do? Greet Israeli soldiers with flowers? For all the evil we do, the fact remains: you kill 20x more than us. What would Israel be without America? Remember the attack on Kuwait in 1967? Israel's history was over right there if it weren't for Britmerican's help. You accuse Iran, Lebanon and Saudia Arabia for funding Hammas? Come on dude... we can't even afford a tank. But you have everything from F-22's, B2's, aircraft carriers etc.

This nice little spat between two INQ members is a perfect microcosm for that Middle East conflict.

That said, it will *never* be resolved, so let's just concentrate on the chips huh?

Dude, please, tell us, where do you get this drugs.
Think i want some.
Pilots refusing to support ground team because of to many civilians around, bleeding to death soldiers not rescued because of possibility of to many "innocent" getting hurt.
People die on both sides.
I had a conversation with Palestinian and asked him about rubber bullet mark.
He said "we where throwing stones on soldiers on the way from the school for ENTERTAINMENT".
This stones can hurt people (and i'm an example). So your entertaining rockets.
I can continue with this endless list and so you can.
The truth is that some people (on both sides) want this conflict going on for their "profit".
On this side, some people realising this fact, and the number of enlighten growing fast.
But same have to happen on your side too before this story ends.

My peaceful neibor from Jerusalem,
What you're refering to as flying rockets are home-made fire-crackers for the enjoyment of your people. The crackers are not mean't to hurt anyone, not at all. Of the 5000+ crackers fired, how many of your people got hurt? In fairness, Israeli crackers are much more powerful and vibrant. There is nothing better in life than seeing a 1-ton bomb drop from the sky onto a busy street in Gaza blowing up my mates in a million pieces. Yesterday, I saw a child hit in the middle of his forehead by a long-distance sniper. it was truly a magistic sight. Normally our kids dodge the bullets with ease, but you got him nevertheless. Good job!. Peace to all. Shalom.

"Isn't the Core 2 based on the Banias/Dothan-core Pentium M ? If so why is this some Israeli achievement going one step backwards and adding a few bolts to an existing technology and now calling it a big success..."

And where do you think the Banias/Dothan were developed? how is the C2D a "step backward"? and why are you so bent on undermining the massive breakthroughs achieved by Intel Israel?

Dear neighbour, I can't say that I'm sorry for your losses as I have mine. They include my own reconstructed ankle, my friends (thanks god not my family) dead or injured in suicide bombings by your people. We out of Gaza for 7 years and we have 7 years of rockets flying over the fence. I guess you did nothing of that, but you live on the side that did. I do want peace (that means we are (you and me) living together, working together, going out for a drink (or whatever if you to religious) without fences, block posts and this ridiculous huge army taking 3 years of life) but as long as you want it other way "killing, bombing etc"-- "came with the sword, will die by a sword". Stop to hate and you'll discover that other life is possible. I visited Egypt, Jordan and Qatar as a tourist, so you can't call me arab hater.
P.S.
I apologise for this non topic related post

Isn't the Core 2 based on the Banias/Dothan-core Pentium M ?

If so why is this some Israeli achievement going one step backwards and adding a few bolts to an existing technology and now calling it a big success...

It is the same as a Jew living in Israel, getting F16 Air planes and adding a computer with custom software and calling it a new version better than all the shit before it... LAME.

To the idiots above take the middle east conflict and take a running jump.

The world is sick of the pair of you!

as for the Intel studd, yes the core2 design was made in Isreal and yes they are quite rightly proud of it, and yes
of all the fabs , I reckon 28 has the
least to be afraid of as it probally
saved Intels another couple of years of handing itds ass handed to it by AMD.

I am a Palestinian and I must say I couldn't agree with you more. We shouldn't hate Isralis the way we do, not that your gunships that rip open our children on the beaches matters, not even our women who get bombed during pregnancy matters, and obviously not that my younger brother who was arrested by Israli police in suspicion of planning attacks on the Jewish land matters. He was only 9 years old when I received his dead body parts in a plastic bag with vibrant and welcoming Hebrew letters.

But let's not talk about the poor souls who die in Palestine by your gunfire on a daily basis. I condemn Hamas for attacking Israel in the first place, and by the virtue of God, they could only manage 11 kills for the astounding 1000+ kills by your forces the past few months in Palestine.

We, Palestinians, were born to be rapped, murdered, and disposed off in plastic bags with traces of Napalm and Phosphorous. We give birth to youngstinains so your soldiers can sharpen target accuracy, and we will continue to produce more for beta testing of the micro-wave gun you recently invented.

I wish you a happy life. God bless you.
Shalom.

P.S: Do you like Emma in bed, Sylvie?

Why it's always about nationality ?
Israel has more engineers per capita then Germany (highest in Europe).
And yes almost every important corporation have R&D facility in Israel. We do have things to be proud of and we are. It's not ego. About Palestinians, they choose the way they live. And they will stay this way until they stop hate us more then they love their children/life.

intels all jewish.

I don't like the 'prior art' arguments... virtually ANYTHING that AMD or Intel does has some prior art somewhere else. I think the comment above on stuff that was 'invented' in Israel was meant to read this is where it started within Intel.

There was a string internal division within Intel during the P4/Core (dothan) days. A lot of this had to do with the 2 different design groups and I think any honest engineer would have seen what was the right design to build upon. It took Intel far longer to make this decision then it should have as I think their was a lot of personal issues thrown into the decision mix.

Having worked with some Israeli companies, I might suggest that some folks here consider there may be some cultural differences and it may not truly be an ego thing; if you are not familiar with the culture, I can see how this would come across as ego, but I don't think that is the case (in general - I'm sure Israel has just as many ego-driven folks as the next country)

I hesitated to post this because 'prior art' comments are usually the opening of bootless debates.

Nevertheless, Oren, of your list Intel did develop x86 CPUs, but except for the x86 instruction set - an implementation detail - the rest of your list has antecedents.

"Israel included investments in the Palestinian territories" I think he means the ones already stolen from the palestinians.

funny how you don't see any country but companies asserting their fame in inventing something - yet Intel don't bat an eyelid Israel invented it! lol...... I have to join piggy and reach for the sick bucket.

8088
math-coprocessor
MMX instructions
Centrino - chipset AND processors
Core
Core 2

just about the only failure was the RISC based i860® XP processor

Reading that made me want to puke,

What didn't Intel Israel not invent, oh my goodness, judging from their inflated ego's, it looks like they invented everything, and they are the best at everything........

They could boost the bottom line by using only Palestinian stoop labour in the factories too!
